APEX Medical XT Auto CPAP Machine with Heated Humidifier

APEX Medical XT Auto CPAP Machine with Heated Humidifier

The APEX XT Auto is as sturdy as it gets and when paired with a humidifier it's a winning combination. Despite its small stature compared to other machines on the market, the XT Auto does not skimp on performance and packs a technological punch and can withstand the daily/nightly rigors of sleep therapy on its own. The XT Auto with humidifier offersÊadvanced technology like a Pressure Variation Algorithm, an Auto Adjusting Algorithm, a User Friendly Interface, all wrapped in a portable package.

Pressure Variation Algorithm

PVA -- Pressure Variation Algorithm -- is designed to automatically reduce pressure during exhalation, and then return to the set pressure during inhalation. Reducing pressure during exhalation will significantly reduce discomfort commonly associated with CPAP therapy, which leads to increased effectiveness and comfort. The APEX XT Auto includes 3 different settings so you can personally adjust the exact amount of pressure relief suited for your needs.

Auto Adjusting Algorithm

The Auto Adjusting Algorithm from APEX XT automatically adapts the air pressure to the most comfortable, and lowest levels during your CPAP therapy. Your therapy will remain effective and the performance of your CPAP device will be uncompromising.

Ultra Compact Design

The APEX XT is focused on delivering quality CPAP therapy and it has done just that. People who travel frequently or who need to save space will find the APEX XT Auto perfect as you can dislodge it from the humidifier truly experiencing what being compact is all about.

User Friendly Interface

Usability is a core focus in the APEX XT. This APEX medical CPAP machine features a large LCD display with an easy to navigate menu and simple buttons ensures a quick and hassle free experience. You can get to the settings you need and find the information you want quickly. All your therapy information is saved onto your SD Card that you can easily link to your PC to view your sleep therapy data. This enables you and physician to take action with your sleep data improving compliance and sleep apnea therapy effectiveness.

Internal Power Supply

The APEX XT gets rid of an external power supply to increase the portability of the APEX XT. This is a boon for frequent travelers who need less parts and more mobility. The in-built power supply only means fewer things to carry however the machineÊmust be plugged inÊthe wall in order to power it.

Humidifier

In tradition with the theme of portability, the humidifier for the APEX XT remains compact and simple. Humidifiers significantly reduce the common irritations associated with traditional CPAP therapy. People who undergo CPAP therapy often suffer from irritation of the throat and nasal passages which can disrupt their sleep. A humidifier actively works to ease the irritation caused by CPAP therapy for a discomfort free night of CPAP therapy. The humidifier for the Auto XT is simple and compact making it an easy companion to carry for your Auto XT.

  Reviewers Tip: The water chamber is dish washer safe but it is highly recommended to hand wash the water chamber in warm water. There is a high probability that the silicone seal may get damaged from extensive cleaning in the dishwasher, and repeated washings could reduce the life of the seal dramatically.

FAQ

Is the filter disposable or reusable? The filter included with the APEX XT is in fact reusable. With regular car and maintenance the filter should last up to 6 months. It is recommended that you clean the filter every 2 weeks at the minimum, and more frequently if you live in a dusty environment. I travel internationally frequently, do I need a converter? The APEX XT CPAP machine is able to handle international power grids that range from 100 volts to 240 volts without needing any adjustment. However you will need a special plug for the power outlets depending on the country your in.
